Android 2.3 reviews

  Android 2.3

  • Motorola’s upcoming Droid 4 has just gotten a little more official. Thanks to newly-leaked images, we’ve got a full spec sheet and a good look at its RAZR-esque styling. While previous images had shown off the Droid 4′s face and slide-out QWERTY keyboard, the back had yet to be revealed.


  • Japanese manufacturer Kyocera has decided to enter the smartphone market with a handset to cater for those who insist on using their phone in very wet conditions. The Kyocera Digno ISW11K is a waterproof handset which also manages to be thinner than an iPhone.


  • Much ado has been made about Intel and mobile platforms. Following massive sales of the first iPad, Intel wasn’t entirely convinced about bringing its processors to the mobile computing space. Yet, the chip manufacturer had its eye on Android. With plans for Honeycomb, Intel will bring Gingerbread to Atom E6xx series processors.


  • Up until now we’ve only seen a glimpse of the HTC Ruby, expected to officially be named the HTC Amaze 4G. But its expected specs and screen size promised much, and now we finally get to see HTC’s latest Android smartphone in all its glory thanks to it being put on display at an event.

  •  

    The term “Google Phone” is set to get more popular in the coming years now that Google owns a hardware company in the form of Motorola Mobility. It is the only search company to have its own smartphone, or so we thought. There’s now some unexpected competition from Yahoo!.


  • Huawei isn’t exactly a household name in North America, but its smartphones have become increasingly popular in other corners of the world in recent years. The company also raised some eyebrows (in a good way) with its S7 tablet and MediaPad, and now it’s bringing a sleek, new Android smartphone to market.


  • If you’ve been on the fence about buying a new phone, perhaps today’s deal will persuade you. Best Buy is offering the Nexus S phone for free today only. Of course, the store isn’t just throwing free phones to any passersby; there’s a two-year contract that goes with the free phone.


  • The tablet space is filling up fast with devices vying for your dollars, but the iPad seems to be reigning supreme. Below it, many other tablets are carving out their niches. One such tablet is the low-key Andy Pad that has just revealed a couple of price points it’s hard to ignore. The Andy Pad.


  • Motorola released the Droid 3 earlier this month giving fans of QWERTY keyboards a new, powerful Android handset to play with for a couple of years. However, anyone rushing to sign up for a contract and get the smartphone in the last couple of weeks may be a little disappointed to hear you.


  • Motorola has finally revealed the Droid 3 and is listing it with or without a contract on Verizon Wireless. The 3rd generation Droid looks like it could jump to the top of the list for those wanting a dedicated 5-row slide-out QWERTY keyboard included with their smartphone. The 4-inch qHD display (960 x 540) means.


  • The long awaited “Facebook phone” is official. The HTC Status for AT&T made its debut via, you guessed it, Facebook. So what’s so special about this phone? See that blue Facebook button at the bottom? That little button allows you to use various Facebook features with just one click. Handset maker HTC launched a new Facebook page.


  • Earlier today, during the Android Q&A immediately following the Day 1 keynote of Google I/O 2011, there were plenty of questions regarding Google’s plan to merge Android 3.1 and Android 2.3 into a unified Android experience. This experience will be the next iteration of Android, which will be called Ice Cream Sandwich.

  •  

    Google is bringing video chat to Android smartphones. Unlike Apple’s Facetime, which currently only works over Wi-Fi on the iPhone, Google Talk with video and voice chat will not only work over Wi-Fi, but over 3G and 4G networks… if it is supported by the carrier. In addition to working on Android smartphones, the new


  • Always Innovating (AI) has been working on hybrid devices — like its Smart Book — for quite some time, and they’re no strangers to the market. The company’s newest revelation is a little number called Super-Jumbo, which enables the humble, $150 Beagleboard to do some pretty impressive stunts. Well, one pretty impressive stunt, anyway.



  • If you have a Barnes and Noble Nook Color eReader, there’s reason to celebrate. The Nook Color always ran a version of Google’s Android mobile OS, it was just heavily customized for Barnes and Noble’s use. Now, the eReader/tablet hybrid has been updated to Android 2.2 “Froyo,” supports Adobe Flash, and has its own app.

Ipad 2 Accesories

By
Zagg have done it again and released what we are excited to say is the seasons MUST HAVE iPad accessory: The  ZAGGmate iPad case with keyboard . It’s not often that we get entirely blown away by an accessory for the iPad, but this one has left us shell shocked and in awe. The perfect compliment to your iPad, this is the first iPad keyboard case combo that we have seen yet that has done it right. In fact, it’s the best bluetooth keyboard we’ve seen to date as well! It’s so right and so perfect that we already wonder how we ever used our iPad without it! Check out the review below… ZAGGmate with Keyboard The iPad’s New Best Friend Our first impression of the ZAGGmate was: “Where’s the rest of it?” This iPad case is unlike anything else we’ve seen on the market to date and the designers at Zagg worked hard to literally rethink what an iPad case could be. This is an iPad case that doesn’t cover the whole iPad, but rather just covers the iPad’s screen, and leaves the back of the tablet...

Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review

By
Ipad 2 Apps: Skyfire Web browser Review Skyfire for the iPad made headlines when it was first released, due to its ability to play Flash videos on a device previously void of this popular technology. Users flocked to the App Store, eager to drop five bucks for the chance to view their favorite clips, shows, and movies on their iPad. Not only did the browser play these videos, but the integrated video compression saved a significant amount of bandwidth for people on a restricted data plan. The initial excitement wore off quickly, though, as complaints were rampant about many sites not playing videos as expected. Since its inception Skyfire has certainly improved in this area, now claiming support for over 200,000 websites containing Flash. The dissenters will always be there as not every Flash video on the Web will be playable, even if the developers at Skype Labs remain diligent. Some of the backlash is warranted to a certain extent. If I paid $4.99 with the intent of viewi...
